We had a fantastic day on Saturday 29 September 2007. By 9:00 the marquees and bunting were going up to set the scene and mark out all the activity areas. Our new registration marquee is a distinctive brilliant blue + yellow medieval tent. Tables, chairs and a myriad of art supplies were distributed to the balloon festooned tents. Volunteers sporting animal tails and ears scurried to and fro to be ready for our midday opening.

The church bells struck 12:00 and our budding artists signed in, collected their art bags filled with a sketch book, pen + pencil and wandered out across the common to start their drawing adventure. There were t-shirts to design, calligraphy to copy, leaves to draw, nature collages to create, window wheels to fill with close observational sketches. There was a "Wild Wood" competition to enter to win art materials, a display of local artists paintings + post card art, a storyteller to enchant, mesmerise and to spark the children's imagination for storyboard illustration.

The children could dress up as fancy dress animals or medieval knights and ladies to model for life drawing. The Bromley museum came with glassed display boxes filled with wild, colourful butterflies to inspire patterns in mask making. The local school parents provided tea + cakes to keep us going throughout the day. Chislehurst artists were there to guide the adults and children alike in still life drawings and watercolour master classes of the church. There were helium balloons in exchange for a drawing, clay gargoyles to make within the Wild Wood, a community mural to create collectively in the Crown Inn and Eagle Heights flew their birds of prey for everyone to watch, to ogle and to draw.

 The Mayor of Bromley came for a visit and got into the spirit of the day by painting a picture of her chauffeur. Young and old came to share in the fun and the activities of the day. They came to watch, to draw and became a part of the magically intoxicating panorama of our outdoor art adventure.
